My apologies if this is a re-hash of an existing topic, but I was unble
to locate anything via a search of the group.

I just bought a '05 Santa Fe (unbeatable set of clearance rebates),
new, and am so far happy with the vehicle, save for one annoyance. The
accelerator pedal offers what I consider to be excessive physical
resistance before giving way, making it being very difficult to
smoothly accelerate from a dead stop. I'm wondering if:

1) This is common to all new '05 Santa Fes.

2) If so, is it something that will ease after break-in?

Anyone have any experience with this?
